Enhanced Abilities: Petilence's strength, durability and endurance are at super human levels. |
Infected Czarnian Physiology: Besides her already vast natural Czarnian abilities, her body is immune to the plague that was ravaging her entire race, thus being the perfect candidate to be modified by her planet's High Caste into a "Plague Dog", giving her power over sickness, plague and disease. |
Infection: As the Fury of Pestilence, she can sicken and infest any living creature she desires, including ephemeral beings like the White's Avatar, with a simple touch. She can also secrete some kind of black fluid which quickly corrodes upon contact. |
Invulnerability: Pestilence was unharmed by the overwhelming heat of the fire pit and could endure the Avatars' attacks without any scratch. |
Accelerated Healing: As a Czarnian, Pestilence possesses an enhanced healing factor that can heal her from any type of injury. |

Born to a family of Low Caste's on Czarnia, the woman who would become pestilence made a living selling scrap metal, below the Veil (The domain of the High Caste society.) Her parents had grown sick like most living under the Veil, convinced by Lobo, she went above the Veil to steal medicine from a House of Healing. Caught and arrested for burglary, she was imprisoned and beaten for many days, in which time her parents passed away. |
Visited one day by a by a High Caste member, she was presented with the offer of becoming a "Plague Dog" against Apokolips, an offer she accepted, in hopes that she could warn Darkseid of the High Caste's plans in order to have her revenge. Injected with disease, she was sent to Apokolips as an ambassador to kill Darkseid, but she was instead greeted by DeSaad who, like her, was immune to plague. He revealed that Czarnia's High Caste was purging her kind for their own sake, and then he made her an offer to gain her revenge, by joining Apokolips as the Fury of Pestilence. |
